Malia is looking forward to working with Learning Enterprises again as the Director of Training and Education. After volunteering in Brazil during PY19, she knew she wanted to continue her involvement with the organization; she loved the cross-cultural experience that she shared with her host community and
wanted to help create a similar enjoyable experience for future volunteers. She returned to LE as the Program Director for Brazil during PY22 and led an in-person program after two years of online programming. Malia’s dedication to LE’s mission motivates her to serve in her new role for PY23.
